Abstract
Using 1,2-Acenaphthenedione as an example, cyclic voltammetry, chronoamperometry, coulometry, electrolysis and digital simulation were used to show that electroreduction of carbonyl compounds in the presence of nitromethane in 0.1 M Bu4NClO4/DMF proceeds via the ECE mechanism gives rise nitromethane anion initiating cyclic nitroaldol (Henry) process leading to β-nitroalcohols.
